RTR XI. WARNING SIGNALS (paras. 81–93). Paragraph 87: A driver who issues a warning signal does not have the right of way.

Answers 1–3 are methods to lower fuel consumption and reduce pollution. Answer 4 is incorrect — driving closely behind the vehicle ahead to reduce air resistance is unsafe.

RTR 11D. In heavy traffic, when all lanes are occupied by vehicles, changing lanes is permitted only when necessary to make a turn, make a U‑turn, or stop. JB

RTR 17. At the request of a police officer, a driver must submit to tests for alcohol intoxication or for intoxication caused by narcotic drugs, psychotropic substances, or other psychoactive substances, in the manner prescribed by the Government of the Republic of Lithuania. RTR 14. It is prohibited to drive a vehicle if you are not authorized to do so, if you are under the influence of alcohol, narcotic drugs, psychotropic substances or other psychoactive substances. A person who is fatigued or ill must not drive if driving may endanger road safety. A vehicle must not be entrusted to a person who is under the influence of such factors or who is not authorized to drive that type of vehicle. When operating a vehicle, the driver must comply with the conditions specified on the driving licence. JB

Although the road sign normally prohibits overtaking, overtaking vehicles traveling at speeds under 30 km/h is permitted provided it can be done safely. Road sign 325 — “Overtaking prohibited” forbids overtaking, except for individual vehicles (or individual vehicle combinations) traveling at speeds under 30 km/h. Road sign 805 — “Validity zone ahead” indicates the length of the zone beyond the sign during which a hazardous road section or other associated signs remain in effect.

The correct action is to apply the brakes and release the accelerator pedal, because you must be prepared to stop if necessary. Road sign 203 — "Give Way" — indicates that drivers must yield to vehicles travelling on the road being crossed. If supplementary panel No. 843 "Direction of Priority Road" is mounted beneath the sign, you must yield to vehicles on the priority road.

RTR 77.1. When the traffic officer's arms are extended sideways or pointed downward: 77.1.1. Vehicles located to the officer's left and right may proceed straight ahead or turn right; pedestrians may cross the carriageway. 77.1.2. Vehicles and pedestrians positioned in front of or behind the officer must not proceed. JB

RTR 203. A driver must ensure that children transported in a motor vehicle use the appropriate installed and correctly fitted restraint systems. JB

According to the Road Traffic Rules (RTR 73.3), a flashing green light permits traffic to proceed but indicates that the green phase is ending and that a prohibitive signal will soon appear. Drivers who try to speed through the intersection — by accelerating or overtaking — take unnecessary risks and may cause an accident. Other drivers may brake suddenly; therefore, to pass the intersection safely while the green light is flashing, drivers must ensure their actions will not obstruct other vehicles and must consider the behavior of drivers behind them, since sudden braking can also lead to collisions. Anticipating the need to stop before the intersection, drivers should reduce their speed.

RTR 195. Drivers must not: 195.1. carry more passengers than are permitted by the vehicle's technical specifications; JB

131. The following speed limits apply outside built-up areas: 131.2. Vehicles of categories A1, A2, A or B driven by novice drivers, persons learning to drive or taking a practical driving test, and buses (including school buses) are subject to the following maximum speeds: 100 km/h on motorways, 90 km/h on highways, 80 km/h on roads with asphalt or concrete pavement, and 70 km/h on other roads.

RTR 16. A driver must stop the vehicle when ordered by an inspecting officer. The driver of a motor vehicle, tractor or self-propelled vehicle shall carry, and upon request of the inspecting officer present, a valid driving licence or a document certifying the right to drive tractors and/or self-propelled vehicles or military equipment (including tactical and logistical vehicles) or their combinations with trailers; the vehicle registration documents; the certificate of the compulsory roadworthiness test and the report of the most recent technical inspection for vehicle categories M2, M3, N2, N3, O3, O4 and wheeled tractor categories T1b, T2b, T3b, T4.1b, T4.2b, T4.3b, T5; the certificate (policy) of compulsory motor third-party liability insurance; and any other documents required by the laws of the Republic of Lithuania and these Rules (except in cases where the Law on Road Traffic Safety exempts the driver from carrying certain documents). The driver must also allow the inspecting officer to check the readings of validated meters that record driving time and rest periods. Documents shall be presented without leaving the vehicle. The driver may leave the vehicle only with the inspecting officer's permission. RTR 91. If hazard warning lights are fitted in a vehicle, they must be switched on: 91.3. when the vehicle is stopped by an inspecting officer;

RTR VIII. Rules for Cyclists 64. Cyclists must not: 64.1 Ride on the carriageway except in cases expressly permitted by these Rules. 64.2 Ride on motorways and expressways. 64.3 Ride without holding the handlebars with their hands. 64.4 Carry passengers if the bicycle is not fitted with a designated passenger seat. 64.5 Carry, tow, or push loads that impede control of the bicycle or pose a hazard to other road users. 64.6 Be towed by other vehicles. 64.7 Tow other vehicles, except for trailers specially designed for bicycles. 64.8 Hold on to a moving vehicle while cycling. 64.9 Cross the carriageway by riding over a pedestrian crossing. JB

A category B driving licence entitles the holder to drive vehicles of category AM (mopeds and light quadricycles). LAW ON ROAD TRAFFIC SAFETY Article 23. 1. Categories of motor vehicles and their combinations with trailers are as follows: 1) Category AM: mopeds and light quadricycles; 5) Category B1: quadricycles. 4. A driving licence that entitles a person to drive: 1) vehicles referred to in Subparagraphs 2–16 of Paragraph 2 of this Article also entitles the holder to drive vehicles of category AM; 4) vehicles of categories B, C, or D also entitle the holder to drive vehicles of categories B1, C1, or D1.

Even if another driver breaks the rules by overtaking or exceeding the speed limit, you must not endanger other road users — allow that driver to overtake you. 4. Road users shall follow the principle of mutual respect and safety.

A slippery road surface is hazardous because tyre grip on the pavement is greatly reduced. As a result, stopping distances increase and the vehicle may skid sideways when negotiating a bend.

LAW ON ROAD TRAFFIC SAFETY Article 23. Categories of motor vehicles and the minimum driving age: 1. Categories of motor vehicles and their combinations with trailers are as follows: 6) Category B: vehicles with a maximum permissible mass not exceeding 3,500 kg designed and constructed to carry no more than eight passengers, excluding the driver; these vehicles may be coupled with a trailer whose maximum permissible mass does not exceed 750 kg; they may also be coupled with a trailer whose maximum permissible mass exceeds 750 kg, provided that the maximum permissible mass of the combined vehicle does not exceed 4,250 kg; a vehicle combination with a maximum permissible mass exceeding 3,500 kg (including a trailer with a maximum permissible mass exceeding 750 kg) may be driven only after passing a skills and behaviour test at the state enterprise "Regitra". LAW ON ROAD TRAFFIC SAFETY Article 22. Granting the right to drive motor vehicles, tractors, self-propelled machines: 12. Persons who are at least 24 years old, who have at least 2 years of driving experience in category B vehicles and who have completed practical driving training for category A1 vehicles in accordance with the procedure established by the Ministry of Transport or its authorised institution, are granted the right to drive category A1 vehicles in the territory of the Republic of Lithuania. As a result, the driver's licence does not explicitly state entitlement to drive category A1 vehicles; instead, the national code set by the Ministry of the Interior is shown next to the category B marking.

Dipped-beam headlamps are not necessary if daytime running lamps are on (not all vehicles are fitted with them). RTR 10. Road users must not arbitrarily move, cover, remove, or install traffic control devices that establish traffic procedures, block the road, leave any objects on the road, or otherwise interfere with the traffic, destroy the road, traffic control devices, outdoor emergency communication systems, and planted lawn, block the road leading to a fire hydrant or other installed rescue equipment or otherwise hinder access to them, throw anything out of the vehicle, litter, discharge lubricants in undesignated places, or otherwise pollute the environment.

The red and blue vehicles are on the priority (main) road, so they proceed first. Between them the priority-to-the-right rule applies: the red vehicle goes first because no vehicle is approaching from its right, followed by the blue vehicle. Vehicles on the side road follow: the green vehicle goes next (it has no vehicle to its right), and last is the yellow vehicle. RTR 154. At a controlled intersection, drivers on a side road must yield to vehicles on the priority road. RTR 156. If the main road’s direction changes at the intersection, drivers on the main road must, with respect to one another, follow the rules for intersections of roads of equal importance; drivers on the side road must apply those same rules among themselves. RTR Annex 2.204. 'STOP' — drivers must not proceed without stopping before the stop line or, if there is no line, before the sign. A driver must yield to vehicles traveling on the road he or she is about to cross. If panel No. 843 'Direction of Priority Road' is installed below the sign, the driver must yield to vehicles on the priority road.

When driving under the influence of alcohol, attention and comprehension are reduced; critical thinking and memory are impaired; coordination of movements deteriorates; reflexes are weakened or lost; drivers take longer to perceive signals and interpret situations; overall driving performance declines, reaction times slow, and vehicle control worsens or may be lost.

In this scenario the driver must complete the left turn before passing the traffic officer. Turning left after passing the officer would violate Road Traffic Rules requirement 77.2.3, which prohibits vehicles approaching from the rear and from the right from proceeding. RTR 77 — Signals given by traffic officers — are defined as follows: 77.1 Arms extended sideways or down: 77.1.1 Vehicles to the left and to the right may proceed straight ahead or turn right; pedestrians may cross the carriageway. 77.1.2 Vehicles and pedestrians in front of and behind the officer must not proceed. 77.2 Right arm extended forward: 77.2.1 Vehicles approaching from the left may proceed in any direction. 77.2.2 Vehicles from the front may proceed only to the right. 77.2.3 Vehicles from the rear and from the right must not proceed. 77.2.4 Pedestrians may cross the carriageway behind the officer. 77.3 Arm raised upwards: 77.3.1 All road users must not proceed in any direction. 77.3.2 Drivers must stop their vehicles without changing lanes.

The stopping distance increases when towing a trailer downhill because the trailer’s mass pushes the towing vehicle forward, adding momentum. Conversely, when driving uphill the trailer’s weight helps slow the vehicle and reduces the stopping distance.

You cannot overtake on the right because you are on a narrow road. Overtaking on the right of a vehicle that is turning left is permitted only if there is sufficient space on the carriageway. RTR 136. Drivers are advised to avoid unnecessary overtaking maneuvers. Before overtaking, drivers must exercise extra caution and ensure that: 136.1 none of the drivers behind has already begun to overtake; 136.2 the driver of the vehicle to be overtaken is not indicating a left turn; 136.3 the portion of lane required for overtaking is clear and the maneuver will not obstruct oncoming vehicles or pedestrians using the carriageway; 136.4 a safe distance from the vehicle being overtaken will be maintained during the maneuver; 136.5 after overtaking they will be able to return to the same traffic lane safely without obstructing the overtaken vehicle. RTR 137. If the vehicle in front is indicating a left turn and has changed lanes to make that left turn (or to turn around), vehicles following must pass the turning vehicle on the right or wait until it leaves the traffic lane.

On roads (especially those with ruts) during heavy rain, water can accumulate on the asphalt because it cannot drain quickly toward the edges. If you accelerate under these conditions, the tire treads may be unable to disperse the accumulated water. The vehicle can aquaplane when a wedge of water lifts the tires off the road surface, reducing traction and making the vehicle difficult to control. If a vehicle begins to aquaplane, the driver should reduce speed to regain traction and stability.

Regulation RTR 167: When an intersection is controlled by traffic lights, drivers must obey the light signals regardless of any priority indicated by road signs. If the traffic lights are not operating or the amber (yellow) light is flashing, drivers must follow the priority indicated by the road signs.

The field of vision is affected by driving speed, visual acuity (e.g., short-sightedness), fatigue, the color and brightness of objects, their contrast with the background, and other factors. As speed increases, a driver’s area of attention narrows and shifts forward: although drivers tend to look farther ahead, the effective dimensions of attention decrease inversely with speed. For example, at 50 km/h it is usually sufficient to focus about 150 m ahead to detect an obstacle; at 140 km/h an oncoming vehicle may not be noticed until it is only 15–20 m from the point of passing.

Traffic rules prohibit reversing only on motorways, expressways and in tunnels; otherwise reversing is allowed. U‑turns are prohibited here because they would require driving against the flow of traffic. RTR Annex 1, III — Restrictive signs: Road sign 332 'No stopping'. Vehicles must not stop or stand on the side of the road where this sign is placed, except for stopping at bus stops. The sign does not apply to vehicles displaying the distinguishing sign 'A person with a disability' or holding a parking card for people with disabilities. If the sign is used in combination with road marking 1.4, the prohibition applies until the end of that marking. RTR Annex 1, V — Special regulation signs: Road sign 503 'One-way traffic' — indicates a road or carriageway where vehicular traffic moves in one direction across the full width.

At an uncontrolled intersection of roads with equal priority, drivers must yield to vehicles approaching from the right when their paths intersect. A vehicle turning left must give way to oncoming traffic that is going straight or turning right. In this scenario, the red car goes first because the motorcycle, which had entered the intersection, stopped to yield. The white car proceeds next, since it no longer has a vehicle to its right, and finally the motorcyclist completes the maneuver — the motorcycle goes third. (RTR 155; RTR 157.)

Children close to the road can behave unpredictably. Exercise extreme caution when driving near them — they may run into the carriageway without looking and may not respond to a horn.

A green light that has been lit for an extended period may change to yellow shortly. You may proceed, but remain vigilant and be prepared to stop safely. 73. Traffic light signals mean: 73.1. A steady circular green light permits movement in all directions (straight ahead, to the right, to the left, or a U-turn); 73.3. A flashing green light permits movement but warns that its time is ending and the signals are about to change.
